re: White Privilege Is a Thing. Here’s How It Works.

Now if you want to say you have a better chance of being born into a good family if you're white, that makes sense. However, to say every white person has an inherent advantage over a black person by birth (white privilege) is wrong.

Is there really a difference? Most black people in this country were either alive during segregation or born to parents who experienced it. Even if we say the privilege ended then, the impacts of it aren't going to go away within two generations.

I don't feel guilty nor do I feel any need to apologize for it, but I still recognize it.
